A BIT OF poTTERY.

The potter stood at his daily work.,
One patient foot on the ground;
The other, with never-slacking speed,
Turning his swift wheel round.
Silent we stood beside him there,
Watching the restless knee,
Till my friend said low, in plying voice,
How tired his foot must bel''
The potter never paused in his work,
Shaping the wondrous thing;
Twas only common flower-pot,
But perfect in fashioning.
Slowly he raised his patient eyes,
With homely truth inspired;

The one that stands gets tired!

Another Grievous Mistake.

JOuu county Argus.
One mistake of the late legislature was made
In amending the tax law. reducing the inter-
est on delinquent taxes to IL per cent and
making other changes supposed TO be in the
interest of the farmer, The penalty ON de-
llnquent taxes ought to be heavy, but the law
ought TO be framed so that no individual could
bid In the land ut tho tax sale or In any other
way become tho assignee of the state. The
state should hold the lands for taxes and the
interest should GO to the county, towns aud
sohool districts. Such law would remove
all danger of loss through failure to pay
taxes on land, and would cut Off an immense
amount Of speculation.
